<p>Our Take: Most players who sustain a broken collarbone return to action in about 8 weeks. LA Dodgers pitcher Zach Greinke did it just over a month. So there is no need to panic. It is disappointing that he will not get to work out in the summer, but he certainly should be ok for the start of the season. Miami, depending on whether or not KSU transfer Angel Rodriguez receives a waiver for immediate eligibility, may need Burnett to run some point. They certainly will need some of his scoring. Here&#39;s hoping he gets back to action sooner then later. Get well Deandre!! <br />

<p>The ACC&#39;s multi-year agreement with the New York Yankees and New Era to annually compete against the Big Ten in the New Era Pinstripe Bowl isn&#39;t just about creating a post-season agreement between two conferences in a unique venue; it&#39;s about brand exposure.</p>
<p>By agreeing to play a bowl game inside Yankee Stadium from 2014 to 2019, the ACC ensures itself a presence in one of the world&#39;s largest markets and with one of sport&#39;s most well-known names in the Yankees. Starting in 2014, there will also be ACC signage down the third-base line and in rotation behind home plate for all Yankees home games. More signage, more brand awareness.</p>
<p>The deterioration of the Big East and Syracuse and Pittsburgh&#39;s deflection to the ACC, coupled with Tuesday&#39;s news, means the league is in prime position to gain fans in the northeast that it never had before.</p>
<p>So, how does this relate to FSU? Simple: more notoriety for the ACC means more exposure and revenue-generating opportunities for its programs in the future. FSU already has a recruiting presence in the northeast as it recruits New Jersey frequently but an increased league presence in New York could also lead to additional recruiting chances and opportunities with prospects the &#39;Noles might not have had in the past.<br />

<p>Reading the transcripts of Tuesday’s bowl press conference, it was difficult to determine who was the most giddy: Swofford or the Yankees. The deal begins for the 2014 season, with an ACC team facing off against a Big Ten team on Saturday, Dec. 28.</p>
<p>Now, Swofford has the ACC in New York City. There are going to be ACC signs hanging up in Yankee Stadium. And, I’ll bet ol’ John isn’t done yet. There’s the little old thing called the ACC Basketball Tournament dangling there with the potential to be played in Madison Square Garden or the new arena over in Brooklyn. Hmm.</p>
<p>“This is truly a terrific opportunity,” Swofford said. “To play in this game (Pinstripe Bowl) on an annual basis, in the media capital of the world and partner with the most storied and iconic franchise, and stadium, in American sports. It’s a partnership that makes sense in every way.”</p>
<p>Swofford is getting every ounce of promotional value out of this trip to New York. Come Monday, in conjunction with the ACC’s growth to 15 members, Swofford will be at the NASDAQ Stock Market Closing Bell ceremony. He will be joined by Boeheim, Notre Dame basketball coach Mike Brey, North Carolina’s Roy Williams, Virginia Tech’s Frank Beamer, Florida State’s Jimbo Fisher, and former Pitt All-American receiver Larry Fitzgerald.<br />

The first...<p>green, The U has 2 big problems with the baseball team, and neither of them involve batting cages. The first is the fact that the NCAA allow a total of 12 scholarships to baseball programs, so the partial scholarships are given to baseball players unless they are superstars. Players then must pay the portion of their tuition that is not covered by their scholarship. Miami as a private institution charges much more in tuition that state schools. So parents if of high school seniors that are offered baseball scholarships the UM must decide is they would prefer paying a modest amount of tuition at a state school, or pay a pretty hefty tuition at UM. Most, in recent times, opt to pay lower tuition at state schools. The other problem is the U&#39;s recruiting philosophy. They recruit superstar baseball player, they get early commitments, then the recruit is drafted high by mlb team, offer large bonuses, and sign with mlb. They never set foot on the U&#39;s campus. In a nutshell that&#39;s what&#39;s happen with the U&#39;s baseball team. Nothing to do with batting cages.</p>Sad times commented on '2 p.m. update:Riley addresses many topics in news conference; Dolphins, UM news'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451b26169e20192aba6d4d8970d2013-06-27T01:12:01Z2013-06-27T01:12:01ZSad timesPosted by: Reality Bites | 06/26/2013 at 03:59 PM Great insight, thanks for contributing!
